Hello,

I am thinking of buying my first pair of GG, but I am not sure about the sizing,

I wear a 6 uk in 1966 last herring/AS, 
and 6 uk in jfitzpatrick aka the shoe snob.

Should I go for 6 uk with GG ? I was thinking of getting a deco lasted gg shoe.

Thank you !!

I'm uk6 in most shoes (j Fitzpatrick, carmina, Enzo Bonafe) but I take uk6 F width or uk6.5 E width on G&G. And even at F width, G&G is tighter than most other regular width shoes of the same size.

Love all three of those. The deco last is hard to beat imo

@saurabh Excellent taste. You did an inspirational job with your selections. Two thumbs way up.

Thank you so much Guys

Love at first sight!!!  How long did it take to get these?

Thanks a lot. You can order it directly thru. G&G Savile row store and approx turn around time is 4 months.

So exciting! That means my anniversary order should be coming soon

These two are truly stunning. The kudu apron is the most mesmerising shoe I've ever seen posted here.

I'm looking to get a G&G MTO version of a spectator shoe. Anyone have examples? Thanks in advance.

Spending an extremely pleasurable 15 minutes scrolling through the pictures on this thread, I've found a lot of pairings of different colours/textures that could serve as inspiration for you. I take it that you're looking for something other than the standard black-white spectator combo.

Lots of the pics aren't spectators themselves, but they have different leather combinations that you could replicate if it catches your eye. Vass is also a good place to look for inspiration.

I was thinking about these today, with all kinds of wet snow coming around-- just not enough to shovel. If only I fit in the GG lasts better. These are really some of the most beautiful full brogues out there, but insteps are too flat for real confidence with me. So I may have to re-brew those with EG-- Falkirk in black Utah and Robertsbridge in walnut country grain. BTW, Leffot did something very close to this that may still be on their website.

(Edited) Thinking about next winter, I wonder if enough people would be interested in a "winterized' version of the Rothschild. Perhaps something like: Rothschild GG06 E or F width (if two widths are possible at all?) Oak Hatch Grain On a Ridgeway or a Dainite sole

Wow. Love 'em.

Thank you sir.

Does G&G offer lasted Shoetrees? I read somewhere that they used to do it but switched to generic ones, is that correct?

I found this on ebay and it says it's "lasted" but I am not sure whether its correct or not.

I am looking for shoetrees for my Glencoe Boots.
